History:
Celeborn is a Sindar, one of the Elves of Doriath. He was a guest of Elu Thingol, the King of Doriath. There Celeborn and Galadriel met, fell in love and were wedded.
Celeborn was a Prince of Doriath and a kinsman of Thingol, the King of Doriath. Celeborn was said to be the grandson of Thingol's brother Elmo. Celeborn's father was Galadhon and he had a brother named Galathil.
Cereborn does not trust or like Dwarves. It all stems from the time that King Thingol of Doriath summoned dwarf craftsmen to make the Nauglamíl. It had a silmaril inset into it, the fabled jeweled Necklace of the Dwarves. The dwarf craftsmen coveted the necklace and they demanded that Thingol give it to them. When Thingol refused, they killed him and took the necklace back.
The Dwarves were pursued by Elves, who killed the Dwarves and retrieved the necklace. However, two Dwarves escaped and returned to the Blue Mountains and rallied their kinsmen to seek vengeance on the Elves of Doriath. An army of Dwarves attacked Doriath and defeated the elves. They took the necklace once more. Butt it is written that Celeborn escaped the sack of Doriath. Celeborn's distrust of Dwarves began at this time.
Celeborn and Galadriel moved eastward into Eriador with a number of Elves in their following. They lived for a while near Lake Evendim. Their daughter Celebrian was born during this time. Later they moved eastward again because Galadriel sensed a growing evil in Middle-earth and she felt duty-bound to oppose it.
Galadriel and Celeborn dwelled in the realm of Eregion for a time along with Celebrimbor and the Elven-smiths. The Elves of Eregion had dealings with the Dwarves of Khazad-dûm nearby, but Celeborn still distrusted Dwarves and would not enter Khazad-dûm, although the Dwarves there had nothing to do with the destruction of Doriath.
The Elves of Eregion also had contact with the Elves of Lothlórien on the other side of the Misty Mountains but both Galadriel and Celeborn stayed in Eregion. Sauron came to Eregion disguised as Annatar the "Lord of gifts", He deceived the Elven-smiths, who began forging the Rings of Power under his instruction. Sauron forged the One Ring to rule the others around this time, and Celebrimbor hid from him the Three Elven Rings of power that he had made without Sauron knowing of its creation and help. Enraged, Sauron attacked Eregion.
Celeborn led a small army of elves from Eregion to meet the vanguard of Sauron's army. He was able to drive the enemy back long enough to join forces with Elrond, who brought reinforcements. But Sauron's army was greater than their combined forces and Eregion soon fell. Sauron took the Nine Rings and at least six of the Seven rings and was eventually be driven back to Mordor.
Celeborn and Galadriel went to Lothlórien to help strengthen their defenses against Sauron.
Celeborn and Galadriel lived for a while in Rivendell in the home of Elrond. Their daughter, Celebrian, married Elrond and had three children: twin sons Elladan and Elrohir, and a daughter Arwen.
In 1050 the Necromancer, who was actually Sauron, built the stronghold of Dol Guldur across the Anduin from Lothlórien. Celeborn and Galadriel are said to have returned to Lothlórien to investigate the Necromancer and ensure the safety of Lothlórien.
In December of 3018, Elladan and Elrohir brought word to Celeborn and Galadriel of the Fellowship of the Ring's quest to destroy the One Ring. The Fellowship arrived in Lothlórien and were brought to Caras Galadhon to meet Celeborn and Galadriel.
Celeborn at first welcomed Gimli despite his distrust of Dwarves and said he hoped that there could be friendship between their peoples once more. Then he learned that the Balrog had been disturbed by an expedition of Dwarves to Khazad-dum led by Balin several years before, and that the Balrog had attacked the Fellowship resulting in the loss of Gandalf the Grey. Celeborn was angry at first and regretted allowing the Fellowship to enter Lothlórien, but Galadriel soothed him and he apologized to Gimli.
Celeborn promised to help the Fellowship in any way he could. On the eve of the Fellowship's departure from Lothlórien, he discussed what route they might take, and offered them boats to ease their journey down the Anduin. The next day Celeborn and Galadriel prepared a feast for the Fellowship and gave them gifts. Celeborn gave them further advice about navigating the Great River Anduin.
Celeborn met Thranduil, the King of the Woodland Realm, in Mirkwood. Thranduil retained kingship of the northern part of the forest, while the center part was given to the Beornings and the Woodmen. Celeborn claimed the southern part of the forest below the Narrows of the Forest to be part of Lothlórien. This region was named East Lórien.
